the challenge of utilizing nanomaterials in specific situations is still far from being solved
As this concerns nanomaterials, I think this is the optimal way to put.

Alexander, technically, it can also be "met." Perhaps that's what you had in mind?

Hi Nick. Certainly. Here are Merriam-Webster's definitions:
Resolve: 4 a : to deal with successfully : clear up <resolve doubts> <resolve a dispute> b : to find an answer to c : to make clear or understandable d : to find a mathematical solution of, etc.
Solve: to find a solution, explanation, or answer for <solve a problem> <solved the crime>
As you can see, the differences for this context are rather significant. "Resolve" applies more to issues or disputes, while "solve" applies directly to challenges/tasks/problems.

Note from asker:
| Hi Mark! Could you elaborate a little on the difference between "solve" and "resolve" with reference to "challenge"? Is there any? |

Thank you. I think "task" is less common in English, and to use it makes the translation look too Russian-influenced.

the challenge of direct utilization ... is still far from being resolved
However, the challenge of direct utilization of nanomaterials in specific structures or components thereof is still far from being resolved.

: it's definitely "challenge" here not a 'problem'. It sounds awkward with 'problem' (if it's a problem why bother at all :-))

: Hi Roman. Agree overall, just that "resolved" applies more to issues or questions, rather than challenges.

There is such a fine line in this case between the two that, frankly, I don't even see the line ))
